    In reply to HP Envy 15 Beats Edition: Okay, I Actually Am Sorta Jealous Now
    Alright. So I was actually thinking of getting this laptop cause I recenlty broke my Beats (don't wanna talk about it) but I just found out that it doesn't come with Beats by Dre Studio edition or whatever. You know, the headphones everyone's thinking of. It doesn't come with those. It comes with the new Solo Beats which are like half the price and ON EAR headphones. Boo. I'll pass.

    doesn't look like a MacBook? I'd say aside from the gloss it looks a lot like the not-so-old Blackbook.

    AMD quad core
    dual video cards driving four lcds
    1300 watt ATX powering 6TB of SATA drives in front pop-out bays
    dual lightscribe DVD drives

    BUT...the two USB 2.0 ports on the front multiport panel are a little too close together. Can't fit two 32gb FlashVoyager GT drives in at the same time.

    Crappy.

    733Mhz HP Pavillion with a mini tower and windows ME. The PSU blew and an ATX one doesn't fit in it so it has no side cover and a power supply is hanging out of it. RAM upgraded to 192MB, though!

    @yoshitoshi: Where are you getting your prices? The 13" MBP starts at $1199 and the 15" MBP starts at $1699. For $2500, you could purchase a 13" MBP, Time Capsule, this computer desk from Target, this office chair, and two classes at the local community college.

    Not to mention the best customer service available comes at no extra charge.

    but again its downfall is that it runs windows where as the MacBook Pro runs Snow Leopard. MBP wins again.

    And it's still has typical PC design cues. It's still lacks polish and refinement with those ports and vent grills. Macbook is still way sexier.

    And you still get to run Windows on that HP :D

    The ports are there so you can actually do things with it, and the vents are there so you can use the thing on your lap without making a penis panini.
